I hardly remember that I have this blog up and then I occasionally look through my Facebook page and realize that this blog is linked up on there and I should probably write something. I usually have absolutely nothing profound or amazing to say, just ramblings and thoughts from me.
As I was reading Psalm 89 this morning, I felt rushed, tired and desired more than anything else to go back to bed. Some days, I think it is best for all humanity (or 26 second graders) if I just stayed in bed. However, my students rely on me to be consistent, and so consistent I am and I show up to work. Anyway, I digress, back to Psalm 89. As I was reading this morning, verses 8-9 really stuck out to me.
"O Lord God of hosts, who is mighty as you are, O Lord, with your faithfulness all around you? You rule the raging of the sea; when its waves rise, you still them."These last few years have been full of changes. Now, as I sit here, feeling like I'm just starting to get used to life where I am, there are more changes on the horizon. Great changes, don't get me wrong. Changes that I'm very excited about, but it is change nonetheless. God just seems to work that way in my life. So this morning, my heart felt like the raging waves of the sea, and God made it very clear that he will still them.
"Be still and know I AM God"
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication let your requests be made known to God and the peace of God which surpasses understanding will guard your heart..."God is sovereign. God is in control. Life changes, but nothing takes God by surprise. And for that, I am so thankful. So, here's to change and getting used to a new normal, again.
